To kick off 2012 we are excited and proud to announce the release of the much anticipated debut album, Uranometria, by the eclectic South African (Sjanine Steyn) / Scottish (Stephen Mullarkey) electronic duo, The Shimmer Effect.

The extact style of the album is hard to pinpoint, with traces of trip-hop and idm coming through, but what stands out is that is a meticulously crafted album from start to finish, taking you on a sonic journey through valleys of deep moods and mountains teeming with hidden energy.

This is how artist put it: "The Shimmer Effect takes you on a fantastic journey into the unconsciousness with their first album 'Uranometria'. Loaded with atmospheric rhythmes, colourful yet haunting soundscapes, and an assortment of flavors, styles and feels, this genre-bending duo delivers what most say is a unique and successful international musical collaboration."
